SPQR is probably more common today than it was when Caesar governed - it's on everything from manhole covers to police cars.

Frombork seems a nice little town. Guess there's nothing much to do there, though, other than unlock the secrets of the Solar System.

Screw AP. If someone would like to cite a reliable reference that discusses the relationship between Copernicus and the Church, and other scientists of his time, I'd be grateful.

Engaging in revisionist history is sickening.That is the CC specialty and it would not exist without it.
What next? Pope Alessandro VI was a peaceful pope and his son Borgia was a misunderstood baker.
And in a 100 years, CC followers will be all denying that there was ever pedophile priests.

That is the CC specialty and it would not exist without it. From your profile:
"My argument with the Catholic Church (CC) vis-à-vis its direct and indirect support of a perpetual expanding government, which in turn has a direct and indirect effect on birth rates (clashing with its admirable stance on abortion), should not be construed (as some on FR may infer) that I somehow disregard all and anything good and positive the CC does for ordinary people living their ordinary lives."
It looks like your argument with the Catholic Church goes beyond the above. It's time to be a bit more honest.

"There is no question here respecting forms of government, for there is no reason why the Church should not approve of the chief power being held by one man or by more, provided only it be just, and that it tend to the common advantage. Wherefore, so long as justice be respected, the people are not hindered from choosing for themselves that form of government which suits best either their own disposition, or the institutions and customs of their ancestors."
-Pope Leo XIII, Encyclical Diuturnum, 29 June 1881
